8GB to 15GB and Broadband Plus

I noticed that the Broadband Your Way capacity has increased from 8GB to 15GB for the £15 price, which seems like a good deal.
I am still on Broadband Plus.  Despite searching and surfing the maze of plusnet web pages, I cannot find my current non-peak time capacity allowance.  Does anyone know or remember?
Could any plusnet staff here confirm whether it is free to switch, including cancellation penalties – I do not want or need the 'free' modem-router.

Off-peak is restricted on any products.
There's no charges associated with switching.

Thanks for the response.
Did you mean off-peak is _not_ restricted?

Hi there,
As the page linked to above states Plus is designed for 4GB peak time usage and 50GB off-peak usage.
It's free to move to one of the Broadband Your Way products, and you don't have to take the router if you've no need for it.
Hope that helps. Smiley

Re: 8GB to 15GB and Broadband Plus

Also as noted in the link, though, you have to remember that free off-peak use for BB Plus runs from midnight to 4pm, whereas for BBYW products it runs from midnight to only 8am. But I'm not sure that is significant, now the allowances on BBYW have been increased....
